Question Rancho Suspension System (making a return??)

So i was looking around on 4wheelparts.com and stumbled upon this: http://www.4wheelparts.com/Lift-Kits..._pn=RANR1010R9

It appears to be what was previously referred as the "old" Rancho kit that they had stopped making. I havent noticed this for sale on their website recently and wondered if Rancho started making the "old" style Suspension system once again.

if the picture is what it is, it looks like it's for a 2wd.
or looks like it eliminates 4wd and the torsion bars in exchange for coilovers.

This kit is for a 4WD. That is how i found the kit on their site. I entered the specs for my truck, and the 4WD drivetrain option was the only one available for this setup. =]

Too expensive for an A-arm

it appears to be not only the a arms, but add-a-leafs, new U-bolts, bushings, and many various other things that are too small to see in that picture. lol

Complete bolt-on pre-runner style suspension system fo Toyota 4WD pickup trucks. Designed to deliver quality ride for street and highway use, while enhancing driver control off-road. Raises vehicle up to 3"
pre-runner is not 4wd... so I'm confused. the arms shown in either site's pics do not appear to have a means to bolt on the torsion bars, leaving me to believe it's to convert 4wd to 2wd with coil-overs....

No I see all that bull. I'm saying with all that other crap it isn't worth that much.

And it says "style" as in how the arms stick way down, i.e. are at a great angle. Like this.
